My husband and I traveled to Walla Walla for medical procedure he was having done. We needed somewhere cheap and easy access to the hospital since we have never been to Walla Walla. I found the City Center Motel on one of the travel sites and it had a nice, cheap rate. I was skeptical but we decided that we just needed a bed and a shower so we booked it. When we got there we were greeted by a sweet young lady at the window, a young girl with her mother looking over her shoulder. The girl took our information and got us checked into our room. Her father then came out with what seemed to be a younger sister, probably about a year old and the little one handed us the receipt after her father handed it to her to give to us. That truly made my husband and my day. We have a large family and it was awesome to see this little family ran business where everyone was involved. Then we got to our room. You can tell when you walk in the door that it is an old building but it has been well maintained. Our specific room was a cute little room with everything we needed. we even had a walk in closet. :) The bed was very comfy, the wifi worked great, their parking was good for the rooms that they had, it was a quiet area and it even had a fridge, microwave and coffee pot. Not only were we happy with the motel but to top it off, it was only a block and a half from the hospital and right in the middle of everything we did. Just down the road from shopping, restaurants and the theater. We will definitely be staying there again!
